I looked at the flycam and went for the glidecam in the end and glad I did. Ive learnt if you buy cheap you buy twice. Youll get it, it may do the job but youll want more :) So you end up buying the glidecam/steadicam anyway after you spent £300 on the flycam.

Then again, totally depends on your budget, its still going to be better than handheld which for a pro really is inexcusable.

Now this statement makes me laugh. Simply because, you mentioned cheap does not always mean bad... ;) I am wondering if you are only referring to Steadicam products or Stabilizers in general? If you mean in general then, I won't repeat that quote on the steadicam forum...Ha Ha!! They'll probably say anything Steadicam and cheap is good...anything not steadicam but cheap is bad.... Ha Ha
